Yes, it appears no other proposal is coming, so now we just need votes so I can run the turn

Voted see last post.

Anyone else think that we should electrify the hulls of all our tanks?
Any one torching it and the ground would get a powerfull shock.
It's been done before, Simms' Motor War Car had such a system on it.

Might be interesting should we build a tank for city fighting, but that would have alot of issues...

Fewer than you'd think, the wheels/tracks keep the hull insulated, the crew inside this are of far greater electric resistance than steel and so safe.
Short steel chain can be lowered to earth the hull after use, just like a fuel tanker.

Tryrar , Whats our train network like? any unused rolling stock?

Hell, whats the nation like? Hills, mountains, rivers, cities, desert, what?

tryrar · « **Reply #39 on:** October 13, 2014, 05:47:48 pm »

Mountain range at the north end of the penninsula with the rest of the country consisting of hilly terrain interspersed with fertile valleys(think Greece or Italy). Also, the rail network was pretty well trashed in the civil war, so current industry is going towards rebuilding it and other industry destroyed by the fighting.

So we need man portable things, with maneuverability also being key...

Year 1920

1)You set your engineers to building a light machine gun using current stocks of rifle ammo. This actually goes pretty well, the engineers running into no problems with the gas recoil mechanism or the feed. Tests show that it will perform as expected, and the army is pretty excited to add this to their arsenal. (Light machine gun: Normal Success)

2)The hollowpoint doesn't go as smoothly, as your engineers run into a problem of the bullet sometimes fragmenting upon firing peppering the target with less lethal fragments instead of a whole bullet.(Hollowpoint Minor Success: Flaw:fragile)

3)The engine goes a bit better. test show this engine is perfect for several different applications with little modification, including trucks and airplane engines, though the low compression gains only about 60hp. (General purpose engine:Normal Success)

A)The laborers work like heroes, building not only several small hangers, but building the runway out to 250m, well above the required 200m.(Runway+support buildings:Critical Success)
